La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Eastland"Property needs to be updated"
"The property was ok in general. Amanda was very friendly and knowledgeable. But….i was assigned a handicap accessible room that had a bed that was awful. If you weren’t handicapped when you arrived, you would be after a night on that bed. It had a metal frame that made noise anytime you moved, and was broke in the middle. If you stood and looked at the foot of the bed, the bed and frame were in a V shape. I think handicapped folks deserve better than that."
